Seventeen Years Old by Sara Beyer
I wholeheartedly agree with Sara B. in the article "Seventeen Years Old." I believe it is wrong that women of any age have to change some aspects in their lives just to suit the wellness of men's lives.
As a woman myself I also have encountered many of these unfair treatments. As well as the author, I've encountered the problem of dress code, at my school and many other schools girls are not allowed to show their shoulders by wearing things such as off the shoulder shirts or tank tops. On the other hand, boys are allowed to walk around school in tank tops, yet they do not get dress coded, and their explanation for not letting girls do that is the fact that we "distract" the boy from learning. So thank you Sara, for writing the truth in this specific topic.
